Cool. Thanks for posting. I was hoping Funimation would have it. Funimation's announcement of Spec-Ops Asuka was a dual license, so it seems like there are going to be more than a few that were licensed far enough in advance to be shared licenses.

why are people scared of Netflix and anime? Waiting is good. Better translations and visuals if they wait for the show to end.

Better translations? I’m sorry but Netflix never even bothered to translate the episode titles for Saiki S2.

^I'm also not sure where they get "better visuals" from considering that, even with the wait, Netflix shows are still often released well before the JP blu-ray releases are complete, meaning they're still using the same TV versions that any simulcast service would use. The only real upside to Netflix's binge-model is their shows launch with a dub from the beginning, but often they release after a point where a simuldub would have still caught up.

This marks the return of a "Boogiepop" series to Crunchyroll. Crunchyroll's great purge of their fan-sub streams (over 3000 anime titles) was between Thanksgiving 2008 and the first full week of January 2009 (I believe this about the right time period). "Boogiepop Phantom" was one of their fan-sub streamed shows. What is interesting is that that sometimes a fan-subbed streamed series on that site will later return as an officially-subbed stream. Like wise, that legit subbed version may be letter removed from streaming then maybe re-added and perhaps even later re-removed.
